Hi Folks,

The following is an update on the ongoing I2RS<=>TE Topology alignment 
discussion (between the authors of the TE Topology model and Alex).

The issues / solutions that are currently being discussed are:

I2RS Generic Network Topology Model (draft-ietf-yang-network-topo):

1.      Some groupings in ietf-network.yang and ietf-network-topology.yang 
cannot be used in augmenting module because of missing name spaces, such as 
"path "/network/network-id" at line 42 of ietf-network.yang.
Solution: Proposed fixes have been sent to Alex to verify.



2.      "leaf network-ref" in ietf-network-topology.yang:169, 220, is causing 
pyang validation errors.
Solution: Alex will check the errors.


3.      Can the group of schedule attributes be moved from 
ietf-te-topology.yang to ietf-network-topology.yang?
Solution: We agreed to keep them in ietf-te-topology.yang.


4.      How to support state branch in augmenting module?
Solution: Keep base model ietf-network-topology.yang as is. In the augmenting 
module, for each entity like topology, node and link, create a config container 
for configuration attributes and a state container for operational state 
attributes.


5.      Should "server-provided" flag be used to block user operation on 
read-only entities?
Solution: Keep base model ietf-network-topology.yang as is. TE topology will 
use other means to achieve such a purpose.


6.      Should I2RS Generic Network Topology model have a top-level container? 
The benefit of doing so is to provide an augmentation target node to define 
attributes global to all networks.
Solution: I2RS Generic Network Topology module authors will consider making 
"/networks" as the top level container.

L3 Topology Model (draft-ietf-i2rs-yang-l3-topology)

1.      L3 Topology Model should have references to TE Topology model, so that 
the related TE information can be properly retrieved, when L3 topology and TE 
topology are congruent.
Solution: L3 Topology Model authors will need to update the model and draft to 
include these.

L2 Topology Model (draft-ietf-i2rs-yang-l2-topology)

1.      L2 Topology Model should have references to TE Topology model, so that 
the related TE information can be properly retrieved, when L2 topology and TE 
topology are congruent.
Solution: This needs to be discussed with L2 Topology Model authors.

Regards,
- Xufeng (on behalf of the authors of the TE Topology Model)

draft-ietf-yang-network-topo - modeling draft
http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-i2rs-yang-network-topo/

draft-ietf-i2rs-yang-l3-topology - L3 topology
http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-i2rs-yang-l3-topology/

draft-ietf-i2rs-yang-l2-topology - L2 topology
http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-i2rs-yang-l2-network-topology/

Implementation status:

This an OpenDaylight (ODL) implementation of the L3 topology and general model. 
 It is likely the L2 topology model will be supported in future ODL 
implementations.   Jeff and I would appreciate anyone who has implementations 
of these topology models to provide details on list or offlist to the chairs.
